A downtown San Luis Obispo business was confused with a Los Angeles store by the same name that was raided by ICE over the weekend. The SLO store has been receiving undue hate over the mix-up. @sanluisobispo.com

An international student at Cal Poly had their visa revoked as a part of a nationwide crackdown on foreign students carried out over the weekend by the Trump administration. At least 87 California college students have had their visas terminated and been ordered to leave the country immediately.

Despite pleading no-contest, the former candidate “did not accept accountability” and continued to lie about where she lived after her conviction, the Probation Department said.

After months of criminal proceedings held behind closed doors, the former SLO County Supervisor candidate was sentenced for election fraud. The Tribune is still waiting to hear back on its opposition to unseal her sentencing statement. Reported with @clojooo.bsky.social

"Nine months have passed since the law that compensates US victims of radiation exposure expired in June, and yet another opportunity to reinstate it fell to the wayside last week." "Radiation exposure victims fight for compensation as nuclear weapons funding soars," by @chloeshrager.bsky.social.
